Breaking engine free on 10-20

Hi Folks,
Having never overhauled an engine before I have what is probably a stupid question. The engine is in a 1926 10-20 and is stuck, the top of the engine (rings, piston tops and sleeves) are very rusty, the bottom of the engine (crank, rods and caps) look good and are all lubed and shiny. I've removed the head, oil pan, fan assembly and have removed the split ring thereby disconnecting the clutch from the transmission. I've been soaking the cylinders in various fluids and penetrating oils for several months. So my question is this: Do I need any more disassembly before try to pound the pistons free? Do I need to remove the clutch, rod caps or governor housing? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
